   Hi, thanks for flagging this and sharing your suggestion.

   We share and understand your concerns about how the intentional, repeated misuse of tags can undermine the purpose of the tags product itself.  Tags are an important discoverability feature for communities, and a powerful way for all Creators—but especially those that are underrepresented—to express their personal identity and creative vision for their content.

   We also do not feel Twitch should be the judge of Creators’ personal or creative identity, so we typically only enforce against the misuse of tags when it is associated with other behavior that violates our Community Guidelines such as hateful conduct or harassment.

   That said, as the VTuber community’s experience demonstrates, there are limitations to this approach and we are actively investigating additional steps we can take to protect and improve the integrity of the tags feature at scale, without infringing on good faith Creators’ personal choice to express themselves and define their content.

   Our goal is to have more to share with you about the tags feature later this year.

   There's legit cam girls on Twitch abusing the tag, who only use the tag to get clicks from people looking for VTubers to show off their body, I feel this is the wrong platform for that type of content.
   By definition VTubing is using an Avatar either 3d or 2d, animated or not. Not exposing your face to the world the entire stream.
   My only reasoning for this is Twitch doesn't take action on this because of all the revenue they get for this. How much longer does this have to go on till mainstream media gets word of people abusing the tags to rope in minors pretending to be older than they are to look at what some consider to be softcore ***********? How much more does this have to go for advertisers to pull out because of bad publicity?
   Think of the whole picture here!
